Maradona fell ill during the 2018 World Cup, when Marcos Rojo’s last minute winner against Nigeria caused his blood pressure to rise, making him unable to climb the stairs in the stadium.
He is now head coach at Mexican side Dorados de Sinaloa, who currently sit seventh in the second tier.
He was recently seen slurring his words during a TV interview with two journalists, which caused concern among viewer regarding his health.
